    Well, that depends on your configuration.

    Hovver your mouse over one of the little headphones icons... you'll see in your status bar it's just a link to an mp3 or a wma. It depends how your browser is set up. Some will play the file in a little embedded media player / quicktime in the browser. Some download and play in WMP or WinAMP or whatever. Either way, it will work on any system which has a browser and a media player installed.

    Presumably the little Flash objects must be downloading the snippets from somewhere? IE, Firefox, Camino, Opera and practically every other web browser in the world can use ftp download links.

    To be honest I'd need to know more about your specific setup, but there are always ways around Flash.

    As I said before, I didn't mean to come off quite so derogatory in the first place. I was genuinely trying to offer helpful advice. This sort of thing is what I do for a living and I have a bit of a tendency to voice my opinion. I assumed feedback would be appreciated, but I do understand that my tone might have seemed a little antagonistic.

    I feel quite bad now, because you're obviously trying to offer a good service for the lowest price possible, and I can see how my comments sounded harsh in the context. I do have genuine admiration for what you're trying to do. Massive respect etc.

    Bet I've screwed any chances of a DJ slot at Pure Techno now, right?

    We're allowed reasonable personal internet usage here.

    Of course it varies from employer to employer, so caution advised.

    Of course not mark... you are always welcome. You know that!

    We have recently changed venue due to the rhythm rooms being shut down and are moving to the welly club as i recall, might take us a while to get on solid ground again but we would love to do a gig swap with you and pure filth. Im not only talking about me, but im sure swiv, andy maily, biskit or tony sowerby would be well up for it.

    Peace.

    (sorry about being an arse earlier... and i was an arse.. and i am an arse ingeneral anyway...i read my other comments.. :ohdear: )
